draining the batteries, you need to press ENTER when the

otherwise the eXplorist will automatically turn itself off.

There is a 5-second countdown after you press the POWER button. If
you change your mind and decide to leave the eXplorist on, just press
the ESC button. If you press the POWER button during this
countdown period, the eXplorist will immediately turn off.

the eXplorist to turn the backlight on low. Pressing the LIGHT button a second time sets the
backlight to high. To turn off the backlight, press the LIGHT button again.
